June 28, 2011

So a couple weeks ago, Nicholas & I headed for a little date night at the drive in theater! There is something so nostalgic and awesome about drive in theaters and I'm really glad they haven't shut this one down yet! (since all others in this area are closed) We grabbed some snacks, pillows, and blankets. Thought I'd share some pics with you!

If you're in the orange county area, I totally recommend going to the Drive-In for a fun date night with someone special or with friends!

So that was it! We saw bridesmaids and we were going to stay for another movie but it started raining! How random is that - for June summer weather. I'm not complaining though, It was so cozy and I would have stayed in the rain but our blankets were getting all wet.

ps: Not sure how updated this site is but there's a list of drive in's by state at this website if you want to check and see if there are any in your area!

hello's:

Yall are just the cutest! I love all your little touches to EVERYTHING you do! The pillows and quit, and ADORABLE picnic basket full of fun food and the lights.... seriously. The cutest! Thanks so much for sharing!

Thats the most welcoming drive in set up I've seen! When I lived in Texas, we had a drive in 1/4 mile from our house. I loved going there! My crush on jonathan brandis began there after seeing lady bugs :)

ah! i'm dying! these photos are so so so cute...seriously looks like a photo shoot! my husband and I just moved to texas, and there's a drive-in in our town that I'm excited to visit...thanks for the inspiration! xo, Katie

Danni, I just love these adventures you take. You really know how to make life special and I can't tell you how much I appreciate that. You remind me to do the same. This little adventure is so cute and I love that picnic basket you packed!

I love the photos, I'll definitely have to take a cue from you next time I go to my local drive in. They are so much fun, and luckily they are also usually a better deal than the traditional movie theaters ;).

OMGoodness - I didn't know you could still do this!!!Obviously, in rainy Brittain we've never had such a thing - but it looks amazing. And your car - with treats and pillows - I would LOVE that!fee x(you look so innocent sitting there...)

Going to a drive in cinema is on my list of things I want to do once in my life. I've been to US several times but never had a chance to experience this. I'm planning another trip to US next year and I will definitely be on the lookout for one of these :)

I so wish we had drive-ins here in the uk, i suppose the weather has something to do with it, lol! looks like you had a lovely evening and the fairy lights were a touch of genius! And yes nutella is good with everything!xox

That looks so fun! All the drive-ins...er, THE drive-in in KC is kinda sketch. Yours looks so cute!

Wanted to tell you also, that I ordered the camera necklace from you a couple weeks ago for a friend's birthday, and your packaging is SO CUTE! Cannot wait to give it to her. {and see the pretty necklace inside!} Thanks so much!

I used to go to this exact drive-in as a kid, and I have so many great memories of it! I didn't even know it still existed.

We used to go after the beach with my parents, and all of my cousins would pile into the back of our Jeep with a bunch of blankets. My dad would go to the concession stand and come back with Icees, Red Vines, and all sorts of other sweet treats. It never looked quite as cute as your picnic, alas.

These memories have always made me want to build a really lovely and safe, modern drive-in, perhaps attached to a fantastic mini-golf course (not sure how that drive-in is now, but I remember it being somewhat sketchy). Thanks for bringing back such fond memories!

Is this drive-in located in NJ? We have never been to one located in Vineland, NJ, but I thought it was called the Delsea Drive In. My van has a tailgate option in which the 3rd row seats flip to face out the back. Can you believe we have never used them that way?! Must do, and the lights are the cherry on top!

So, you didn't have any issues going in your Prius. I want to take my boyfriend to a movie this week before they are done for summer and am worried...What did you do to make it work well without killing the battery?
